    ...Of all the half assed things to make a rating for. Maybe if it was some sort of letter or number grade showing the quality, but using a ESRB basis for controllers? Well, it's only for a single company, but still....

    Yeah, very sad.

    Why make them violent or adult, then?

    Well, remember Assembler's comment on the 3DO blaster's controller? "Looks like a gay sex toy" :smt043

    That's a bit over the top. A batarang maybe.

    While the rating system for contollers is pathetic, I couldn't help but laugh at the picture Retro posted :smt043

    the gaystation 2 picture is pathetic in my mind and a very hardcore gay hating thing.

    I think 'tis not supposed to be an insult at Homosexuality but at Playstation fans/fanboys. At least, I don't see it as an insult at homosexuality....but I'm not homosexual so I guess my opinion means squat :p

    Can you honestly say you never had anything against Sony and called the Playstation Gaystation in jest? That's exactly what it is, jest... and mockery of the hardware and Sony, not gay people.

    Nafflon for Athlon.

    Smelleron for Celeron (they don't smell, its just a funny insult to show your dislike)

    When I worked in a LAN, there were many Gurkhas who would come in and look at their e-mails, and read all the spam enlargement and porn e-mails, and look up porn. They came to us because they weren't allowed to do this at base. They cluttered our PCs with spyware and virii, costing me many hours cleaning, and often reformatting. We, therefore, called them Jerkas.

    Or Celery, because it has much likeness... to the... vegetable. OK, never got that one, but there's loads more where that came from (probably from 12-year-olds):

    Dreamcast = Dreampants
    Gamecube = Gaycube

    Wait, actually, I won't bother listen them all. Most of them are just replacing syllables that sound like "gay" with "gay". 12-year-olds think everything's gay.

    That Gaystation 2 box was hilarious, Retro.

    On the topic of rated controllers, they could simply rate most of today's controllers "Naughty" because they vibrate. :-D :smt042 :smt082

    Yeah, when I went round my friend's to play N64, another friend would come round with his own pad. He insisted on using his own, with a rumble pak. He sat cross legged on the floor, with the pad on his lap!!!

    We called the rumble pak a wankpak from then on :p

    I actually call Halo 2 Galo 2 sometimes because of typos.

    I have been called or heard the word faggot on Xbox Live innumerable times.

    Most internet games are filled with Noob/ Faggot calling Noobs. Graal noobs call Graal vets noobs and then all hell breaks loose, and many a noob die in the slaughter. Its just a rule of thumb (on most of the internet) to be an ass to people you will probably never meet. :smt023 :smt045
